Small Craft - Paperback

by Janet Edmonds (Author)

Janet Edmonds lives and writes on Cape Cod near Barnstable's salt marshes and harbor. Her work is infused with a strong sense of place and time - and plenty of sea salt. The poems in Small Craft immerse themselves in the glittering, turbulent waters of Cape Cod to see what can be salvaged and salvage what can be seen. Using a sound-rich diction, Edmonds describes the lowliest razor clam and the brightest constellations in the night sky. She combines presence and absence, light and dark, the knowable and the mysterious nature of things.
